affair II ; jack gilinsky

savannah's pov

when jack and i got home last night, he went straight to bed without a word and i spent the whole night wondering how i'm going to explain what max stupidly told him.

my boss wants me, max and a few other colleagues to go around europe with her for thirty days to discover new and unique fashion.

but it's thirty days. a whole month away from jack, and i just think it's selfish to make him come along and be completely pushed aside by my work.

i just don't want him thinking that i've officially made a decision of taking the offer, because the truth is, i still need time.

so i'm just praying that the hangover completely wiped his memory of it all so i can tell him on my own accord.

i had just arrived at work and settled down in my desk chair, before the door burst open and kendall came in followed by theo, then max.

"good morning sunshine!" theo exclaimed.

"how do you have so much energy on a monday morning?" i questioned with a laugh.

"lots of coffee, my friend. lots" he replied.

kendall perched on the side of my desk, "how was your weekend?".

i instinctually gazed at max, who at that second, turned away from me.

"it was okay" i shrugged, drinking the starbucks coffee i got on my way here.

"how's jack?" max surprisingly asked.

"he's good, no thanks to you" i muttered.

kendall looked at us both questioningly, "am i missing something?".

"no," i shook my head, not being bothered to explain everything. "it's nothing".

"okay, well just a reminder that the versace event is this friday" kendall informed.

i closed my eyes and sighed, "i completely forgot about that".

"how? this is currently one of the biggest nights of our career!" she spoke. "you should have your outfit and date all sorted".

"who are you all going with?" i inquired.

"i'm going with this beauty right here," theo said, putting his arm around kendall.

"do we have to bring a date? because i don't know if jack will be up for it" i told them.

"no, you have to! you're one of the writers, you need that company when they snap those paparazzi pics" theo said, taking imaginary pictures of kendall as she laughed and posed.

i bit down on my lip, "i can ask him, but i can't guarantee anything since on fridays, he's usually overloaded with work".

"max, who are you going with?" kendall questioned him.

"no one...yet anyways, i haven't really asked" he spoke.

"so be a great lad and go with savannah" theo nudged and my eyes slightly widened at the suggestion.
